SIL hubby does nt earn much and even the expenses of their son is being managed by my hubby )but nw after marriage i came to know that he has soooo much of debt coz of this construction. we r not in a position to meet our basic demands like our monthly expenses.. we dont have any small facility at my home.. nt even a good furniture we want to buy... but the house at his home town has evry single faciliy with so much of sophistiacation... sooo many costly furnitures.... but on the other hand we dont have anything for us.. we cannot use that house anymore since its impossible to go out there and stay since we r living in a city where my husband works and we usually go there hardly.. nw the biggest problem is howmuch ever i control my temper im not able to do it and i shout at him for wasting such a huge amount.. since the day of our marriage we have lots and lots of argument and end up in fighting.. i love my husband very much because he is innocent and wen it comes to finance im becoming tooo tempered.. now he is still meeting my SIL expenses monthly.. i have been telling to talk with his sister to take care of her family sisce its imposiible to take of 2 family at a time since we r nt billioners.. but he is nt ready to talk with his sister since she will think bad itseems.. i dont understand this,, atleast my SIL should have commonsense not to disturb us.. they live a well settled life wen compared to us... we dont have kids still im very much worired about our future.. we have problem in conceiving also adding to that this financial problem.. all these r eating my brain.. im totally out of my control and end up in crying.. my hubby do feel bad for spendig such a huge amount in that house which he cannot use.. and he also feels bad that he cannot keep hinself fullfilling our basic needs...

i totally understand your anger and frustation because i am in the same place. it is not easy staying with a person who put' s his family' s priorities after other' s.(u are his first priority and after that caomes his sister.)my husband and i fight and don' t talk for more than 2 months because of this. even now when i am writing this reply we are not on talking terms. anyway....from my problem to yours..u cannot put up with this for long because after u have a baby this this kind of spending on his sister cannot go because once a baby comes expenses multiply.tell your husband to talk to your SIL husband. you are not wrong in anyway and stop feeling guilty.but don' t let your husband move away fromu.see o it that he communicates with u ona regular basis. financial stability is importand in today' s trying times. tomorrow if we need money no one is going to help us. so it is always prudent to save for your future. on your part what u can do is , if your husband gives u 10000 per month try to spend 8000 and save 2000 no matter what.i used to do this in initial years of marrige. it is difficult because sometimes i would want t o buy something for myself but then due to savings i could not. anyway....if u are educated and don' t have responsibility like children why don' t u start working that way u can save some money for future.this is the most u can' t do. otherwise everything is on your husban' s hand. i really wish that god could have men like these a little sensible. because there are mentally harassing their wives because of their behaviour.i don' t know the circumstances but with your husban' ds permission can' t u directly talk to your SIL, if he is reluctant to talk.just be brave. u have your whole fuure ahead of u. even after 6 years of marriage i am facing this problem but it is better after my daughter was born but it is s till there. i cannot enjoy my married life because of this because we always end up fughting because of money. i don' t care whether he thinks i am money minded but we ahve to stand up for what is right. if we don' t control they might cross the limit. i wonder can we ever solve this proble. wishful thinking. i hope not. anyway after venting my anger on this forum and learning that some women face this problem it made me feel that there are cases like this. but still it does not solve my problem.will it ever be solved?

thanks for your reply.. yesterday i had a long chat with my DH.. he has told me that he will talk with his sister in a short span.. he has told me nt to bother about much since he would take care of the family.. so i have decided not to talk about it anymore at least quiet often and lead a life which is meaningful.. i believe and trust him.. he has told me to handle all the financial stuffs.. im yet to start my job shortly so as to earn as well as to get rid of unnecessary thoughts.. i dont know y all guys r like this and most of the females face a similar problem.. lets hope things change to better from worse.. take care

Finding Balance and Trust: Gamer Husband
I wanted to share a story from my own life that might resonate with some of you. After the birth of our child, my husband, who works incredibly hard to provide for our family, began occasionally playing at online platforms. Initially, I was nervous and unsure about how to handle this new development. I feared it might lead to conflicts or even bigger issues.

RE:Miserly In laws & Hubby
You are earning a good amount of money monthly and as you have said that your husband is also earning very well then why are you giving your money to him and why are you not questing him about his earnings as its your rights on it, please speak up on this.... - Suman [View Message]
RE:Miserly In laws & Hubby
According to me you should not act like this as this is really sad to see that your husband is treating you so badly infact you should make him understand that this is not the way you are asked to be treated and the same will continue then it will be bad for him.... - Anita [View Message]
RE:Miserly In laws & Hubby
Hello friend this is not acceptable and why are you not raising your voice against injustice on you. Please speak to your husband on this and make him feel that what he is doing is completely wrong with you and ask him directly what is the reason behind it.... - Aditi [View Message]
RE:Miserly In laws & Hubby
If the husband follows the inlawas means its very clear that he will always listen to them instead to you, in this matter i can clearly say that you are not living the life you deserve and just helping your husband in his living and earning for him.... - Sujata [View Message]
RE:Miserly In laws & Hubby
Hello dear this is really weird behave of your husband towards you, please do one thing just speak to your husband directly and ask him whether he really loves and want to spend the rest of his life with you or not. Just go and ask him upfront and see the reaction on it.... - Anaida [View Message]
